Loren Legarda is lying through her teeth and gaslighting everyone.
The New Majority-12 did NOT elect a Senate President.
They declared all positions vacant with a quorum of 12 legally backed up by the Senate Rules, the Constitution, SC jurisprudence, and Senate practice.
Why should Legarda know this?
It’s because in May 2015 when three (3) of their fellow Senators were arrested for plunder and she was abroad on an official trip, they used a quorum of 12 out of 17 available Senators to conduct business.
Guess who was one of the Senators in 2015?
Yep, Loren Legarda. Along with Alan Peter Cayetano and Pia Cayetano. Resibo below. 👇
And not one of them objected or claimed the session was unconstitutional. Not one of them filed a case before the Supreme Court.
You are now in estoppel, Senator Loren.
So no, we won’t be gaslighted. 👊

Rep. Chel Diokno is correct. This Anti-political dynasty bill is fucking USELESS AND BULLSHIT!
HERE'S WHY:
— it only covers close family (spouse, parents, children, siblings). Cousins, uncles, and aunts are not included.
— one family can still hold many government positions at the same time.
— when someone’s term ends, a relative can quickly replace them, so power can stay in the same family.
Presiding Officer Win Gatchalian reads the legal justification na may quorum sila with 12 Senators.
But he says 12 out of 22 Senators because Jinggoy Estrada and Bato Dela Rosa are outside of the jurisdiction or coercive powers of the Senate!
Hahaha mas intense ang legal theory nila kesa sa legal theory ko.
Boom kaboom! 💥
👊
